• Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Department of Hydraulics and Hydrology - The department provides instruction in both theoretical and applied subjects in the Bachelor, Master and doctoral degree study. The main focus is on courses in Hydraulics, Hydrology, River Engineering and Water Management. The department also serves as a research workplace solving projects of fundamental and applied research. The research carried out at the department is thematically oriented towards: open channel flow and pipe flow, hydraulics of water structures and transport of sediments, flood protection and revitalization of streams, hill slope and catchment hydrology, rainfall-runoff modelling, transport of contaminants in natural porous formations.
• The Institute of Hydrodynamics AS CR - The Institute of Hydrodynamics AS CR, v. v. i., is a part of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. At the present time, the scientific research can be divided into four groups: fluid mechanics, hydrology, rheology and water treatment. Although it is not apparent, these subjects have many things in common. They relate to hydraulics, water management, civil, chemical and physical engineering and environment.
• TGM WRI - T. G. Masaryk Water Research Institute is an organisation focused both on applied and basic research, providing research solutions in water management and waste management.
• The Czech Water Association - The Czech Water Association (CzWA) associates experts, companies and institutions wishing to contribute to the effective and sustainable development in the field of water management and water environment protection. CzWA came into being in 2009 by transformation of the Association of Wastewater Treatment Experts (AČE ČR) established in 1992. CzWA is a national member of the international associations IWA and EWA representing the Czech Republic and collaborates on a basis of treaties with expert associations in Germany (DWA), Austria (ÖWAV) and Slovakia (AČE SR).
• IAHR  International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research - IAHR, founded in 1935, is a worldwide independent member-based organisation of engineers and water specialists working in fields related to the hydro-environmental sciences and their practical application. Activities range from river and maritime hydraulics to water resources development and eco-hydraulics, through to ice engineering, hydroinformatics, and hydraulic machinery.
